Scrotal lymphedema is a rare condition characterized by blocked lymphatic drainage to the scrotum, resulting in physical and psychological discomfort for sufferers. Here, we present a case study of a 27-year-old male with giant scrotal lymphedema resulting from paraffinoma injection. The patient experienced scrotal enlargement since 2019, which engulfed the penis and was surrounded by edema. After confirming the absence of filariasis parasites, the patient underwent paraffinoma excision and scrotoplasty, resulting in a 13 kilograms scrotal specimen with no signs of malignancy. Giant scrotal lymphedema can be distressing, but surgical excision can improve the patient's quality of life.
阴囊淋巴水肿是一种罕见病症,其特征为阴囊的淋巴引流受阻,给患者带来身体和心理上的不适。在此,我们呈现一例27岁男性因石蜡瘤注射导致巨大阴囊淋巴水肿的病例研究。该患者自2019年起阴囊开始肿大,阴茎被包裹其中且周围伴有水肿。在确认无丝虫寄生虫后,患者接受了石蜡瘤切除及阴囊成形术,切除的阴囊标本重达13千克,未发现恶性迹象。巨大阴囊淋巴水肿会令人痛苦,但手术切除可改善患者的生活质量。
